[sumo-user] Issue with getLeader method

[ĐEEPTHI P <deepthi.p08@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I used the code below to get the position of leading vehicle. However, sometimes the simulation gives the position of the leading vehicle behind the ego vehicle (as shown in the output). How does this happen ?

 leader = traci.vehicle.getLeader(ego_id)

 if leader != None:

    leader_id = leader[0]

    lead_pos = traci.vehicle.getPosition(leader_id)

    ego_pos = traci.vehicle.getPosition(ego_id)

    print("Ego position {}, Lead position {}".format(ego_pos, lead_pos))

Ego position (795.95, -1.6), Lead position (781.706206685247, -1.6) Ego position (797.5900467095553, -1.6), Lead position (783.2492279457477, -1.6) Ego position (799.1890996324844, -1.6), Lead position (784.7922492062485, -1.6)
